What Are the Steps for Getting Porcelain Veneers?
STEP 1 — Smile Design & Treatment Planning
We begin by evaluating your teeth, facial features, bite, and aesthetic goals. Digital
photography and smile design help us plan the shape, proportions, and overall appearance of
your new smile.
STEP 2 — Conservative Tooth Preparation
The teeth are carefully prepared while preserving as much healthy tooth structure as possible.
Precise records are then taken for the fabrication of your custom porcelain veneers.
STEP 3 — Final Veneer Placement
Each veneer is carefully evaluated for fit, shape, color, and overall appearance before being
securely bonded into place. Final adjustments are made to refine your bite and create a
natural-looking result.
